Here's a unified "localized" equipment file: only Roman alphabet is used but all units are named native (except Indian, sorry - still on English). Its almost obvious who is who by icon's look, however in some rare cases there's an English comment placed in extended description.

Mod works only with EN-version, that's why its called "unified" localization, so people from any nation can read native names of units in one place.
Thanks for testing, T-26t has been fixed (must be "lightpull" only, not for personnel).

Besides many new units added for almost every major country and some minors there's also now a compatibility support for NikiVdd's campaings (at least a try; currently in beta-testing): delete gamerules from his folders and replace equipment with one of these below.

Also there's a "trick" when playing germans and start invasion in USSR: you can use not the latest but previous models of Pz.II/III/IV/38 with CAMO trait as compensation for lower combat stats - they have special "Barbarossa" and "Autumn" skins.

This is how "unified localization" looks like (example from Stalingrad scenario):

Snow-covered Norway for basic campaign (to make these ScreenShots I'd specially bought a monitor with physical portrait mode support

):

All norwegian infantry got ski mode + new german unit (Gebirgs Nord) introduced: is has -1 GD but can also switch to ski mode. Of course, there are many other units and things have been added to different nations, for example, Garrison Machine-Gunners; polish TK3/TKS become transportable by their main truck (Fiat 621L), soviet BTs get tracks/wheels switch; cavalry is of two types now (classical and dragoons), few unique desert-only units, etc.
To be continued

Universal equipment file suitable for Nico's (GER/ITA) and Grand campaigns:

The main difference is that arty ranges are edited for lower map's scale; the same has been done for POL and SOV campaigns. Also all strongpoints and fortresses got Range=1 now for the same reason.
